Here is the second of sixteen of my favorite artworks depicting romantic love in its various forms. I'll be adding one artwork a day to the blog until Valentine's Day! "Like", "Tweet", and "Comment" on your favorites. The most liked artwork will be featured in my next video! The scene is not from any particular tale, but likely a moment imagined by the man who commissioned the painting. He supposedly conceived of the scene with him and his mistress in the midst of playful temptation, while the character holding the swing would be a bishop. That obviously isn't a bishop! Fragonard seems to have taken the liberty of turning the bishop into... perhaps... the young woman's husband who seems cheerfully ignorant of what is going on 10 ft away.
